3.4 Space Requirement
3.5 Mounting Steps
1.Use the wall bracket as a template to mark the position of the4 holes on the wall.
2.Drill holes with driller, make sure the holes are deep enough (at least 60mm) for installation,
and then tighten the expansion tubes.
3. Install the expansion tubes in the holes, and tighten them. Then install the wall bracket by
using the expansion screws.(Φ10 driller, torque: 2.5±0.2Nm).
4. Hang the inverter over the bracket, move the inverter close to it, slightly lay down the inverter,
and make sure the 2 mounting bars on the back are fixed well with the 4 grooves on the
bracket.
5.After confirming the inverter is fixed reliably, fasten two M5 safety-lock sockets head cap
screws on the right or left side firmly to prevent the inverter from being lifted off the bracket
(torque: 2.0±0.2Nm).

4 Electrical Connection
4.1Grid Connection
33-60KW series inverter are designed for three-phase grid. Voltage is 400V, frequency is
50/60Hz. Other technical requests should comply with the requirement of the local public
grid.Micro-breaker should be installed between inverter and grid, any load should not be
connected with inverter directly.
Table 3 Cable recommended
Connection Steps
1. Choose the appropriate wire(Cable size: refer to Table3).
2.Remove 30mm of insulation from the end of wire.
3.Insert stripped wires into AC terminal and ensure that all conductor strands are captured in
the AC terminal.
4. Compress the terminal head by using a crimping pliers .
5.Insert AC cable into port through screw cap and then tighten the screw cap.

4.2 PV connection
◆Conditions for DC Connection
The inverter has 3 independent input : PV1 & PV2& PV3 Notice that the connectors are in
paired (male and female connectors). The connectors for PV arrays and inverters are H4
connectors;
◆Connecting the PV Array
The solar modules connected to the inverter must conform to the
Class A requirements of the IEC 61730 standard.
If the inverter is not equipped with a DC switch but this is mandatory in the
country of installation, install an external DC switch.The following limit
values at the DC input of the inverter must not be
exceeded:

Danger to life due to lethal voltages!
◆PV array supplies d.c voltage to inverter when exposed to light,before
connecting the PV array, cover some light screens above PV
arrays,ensure that the DC switch and AC breaker are disconnect from the
inverter. NEVER connect or disconnect the DC connectors under load.
◆Make sure the maximum open circuit voltage(Voc) of each PV string is
less than the maximum input voltage of the inverter.
◆Check the design of the PV plant. The Max. open circuit voltage, which
can occur at solar panels temperature of -10℃, must not exceed the Max.
input voltage of the inverter.
◆Improper operation during the wiring process can cause fatal injury to
operator or unrecoverable damage to the inverter. Only qualified
personnel can perform the wiring work.
◆Please don’t connect PV array positive or negative pole to the ground, it
couldcause serious damages to the inverter
◆Check the connection cables of the PV modules for correct polarity and
make sure that the maximum input voltage of the inverter is not
exceeded

Connection Steps:
1. Choose the 12 AWG wire to connect with the cold-pressed terminal.
2. Remove 7mm of insulation from the end of wire.
3. Insert the insulation into pin contact and use crimping plier to clamp it.
4. Insert pin contact through the cable nut to assemble into back of the male or female plug.
When you feel or heard a “click” sound the pin contact assembly is seated correctly.
5. Plug the PV conntector into the corresponding PV connector on inverter.
4.3 485 Connection(Optional)
◆485 is provided the function of remote control that allows external control device to make
the inverters remote cluster control through 485 port on the inverter.
Connection Steps:
1.Uninstall the parts of the connection plug from the accessory bag.
2.Prepare communication cable,trip the insulation from the communication cable.
3.Let the communication cable pass though the waterproof connector , then insert it into the
connector following the PIN definition rule.
4.Plug communication conntector into the corresponding conntector on inverter, the
completed appearance is like the below figure.
◆When routing the signal cable, ensure that it is separate from the power
cable and away from interfering sources to prevent communication from being
affected.
◆The protection layer of the cable is in the connector. Cut off surplus core
wires from the protection layer. Ensure that the core wires are completely
inserted into the cable holes, and that the cable is securely connected.

4.4 Turn-off the Inverter
Turn-off the inverter step:
1.Disconect the line circuit breaker from single-phases grid and prevent it from being
reactivated.
2.Turn off the dc switch.
3.Check the inverter operating status.
4.Waiting until LED, OLED have go out, the inverter is shut down.
5 Powering On the System
5.1 Start-Up the inverter
1.Turn on the DC switch at the bottom of the inverter.
2. If there is a DC switch between the PV string and the inverter, turn on the DC switch.
3. Turn on the AC switch between the inverter and the power grid.
4. Observe the LEDs to check the operating status of the inverter.
5.2 First run time setting
Do not disconnect the DC connectors under load.
Before turning on the AC switch between the inverter and the
power grid, use a multimeter set to the AC position to check
that the AC voltage is within the specified range.

7 Maintenance and Cleaning
7.1 Maintain Periodically
1.Checking Heat Dissipation
If the inverter regularly reduces its output power due to high temperature, please improve the
heat dissipation condition. Maybe you need to clean the heat sink.
2. Cleaning the Inverter
If the inverter is dirty, turn-off the AC breaker and DC switch ,waiting the inverter shut
down ,then clean the enclosure lid, the display, and the LEDs using only a wet cloth. Do not use
any cleaning agents (e.g. solvents or abrasives)
3. Checking the DC switch
Check for externally visible damage and discoloration of the DC switch and the cables at
regular intervals.If there is any visible damage to the DC switch, or visible discoloration or
damage to the cables, contact the installer.
7.2 Trouble shooting
Our quality control program assures that every inverter is manufactured to accurate
